Mr.. Rohrer's dog, a rather noisy Scotch Il
risr, was tied in the yard near the alley Ga
leading to Mulberry street, and clio
the fence. The animal was foui
dead this morning, and as there were
marks OF violence upon him, 1t IL believ,
that he was given q dose of poison BY Il
thieves before they began their operation

Rohrer and family that they were n
awakened earlier than they were ,
the thief had the revolver, the onl
weapon In the house, in his possessio
